Tessa is calm and patient with my hesitant, suspicious and protective dog. After a few sessions, Tessa is building a great bond with Ocho. She uses positive reinforcement and let's Ocho move to the next stage when he's ready to. He is listening to her, responding and trusting her. And I trust her with my tricky dog!

Tessa is an awesome dog sitter/walker. She has walked our dogs for us multiple times and dog sat for 2 weeks while we were away for vacation. For dog sitting, she took our dogs on all the walks she asked her (one morning and one afternoon/evening dog park), fed them like we asked, interacted with them and ask permission to give them treats. She did not just walk them and let them out, she spend the extra time to make them feel safe and comforted while we were away. For dog walking, we told Tessa our general path and how long each walk takes, and she made sure she walked them for an equal length and distance, occasionally mixing it up and taking them for a new adventure. She has good control over them at the dog park and was able to get them there and back without any hiccups. They are always so happy to see her!
